How to write ^C at in the Windows console? For example, I need to enter ^C in this window. If you press Ctrl+C in the console, the application exits and the console closes.

1Can't you write it as two separate symbols? – HolyBlackCat Jul 08 '18 at 08:44

You mean you want to know the key sequence to enter that `^C` appears in the console? – πάντα ῥεῖ Jul 08 '18 at 08:44

This question has nothing to do with the CMD shell. You're running an executable named sdfdsf.exe that's attached to a console window. This window is hosted by an instance of the console host process. In Windows 7+, the console host is conhost.exe. In older versions it's hosted in csrss.exe. The client process, sfddsf.exe, uses the Windows console API (e.g. `GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo`) and standard I/O (e.g. `ReadFile`, `WriteFile`) to interact with the console. In Windows 8+, console I/O is implemented using the condrv.sys device driver. In older versions it uses an [A]LPC port. – Eryk Sun Jul 08 '18 at 09:26
